Synopsis

Explore how German public education evolved from medieval roots into a structured, research‑driven system.

This English edition presents an overview of the German education landscape as sketched in Lexis’s study, covering universities, secondary and elementary schooling, and technical institutions.

The book outlines four historical periods for the German universities and details how present organization operates under state authority. It also surveys related systems like girls’ schools, elementary education, and vocational and technical training, offering a concise, factual view of the educational infrastructure of the German Empire.
